May 30th & 31st - Nurak get away

After 2 days in Dushanbe, we get bored, so as we met Marc`s friend last night, we jumped into their weekend trip plan. 

Nurak is at 1.5h driving from Dushanbe and it is the foreigner get away weekend trip of the foreigners living in Dushanbe, so we will give it a try.

We reached Nurak end of afternoon by Taxi and went straight for a swim and few jumps into the lake.

Tomorrow we plan to climb the mountain called the 5th teeth, a long and hot trekking coming.

8AM ready to hike. No single track to follow but cows and goats steps...It was a difficult 4.5 hours climb under the strong sun and bushes but the top view on the other side was awesome.

The Nurak Private water reserve used for electricity generator.

Some pictures on the top and we were on our way back.  Going down was easier and cooler...

Down to the village, we went for a quick BBQ and back to Dushanbe by night.
